The IL-12Rβ2 gene functions as a tumor suppressor in human B cell malignancies
2004-06-01
Abstract excerpt
The IL-12Rbeta2 gene is expressed in human mature B cell subsets but not in transformed B cell lines. Silencing of this gene may be advantageous to neoplastic B cells. Our objective was to investigate the mechanism(s) and the functional consequence(s) of IL-12Rbeta2 gene silencing in primary B cell tumors and transformed B cell lines. Purified tumor cells from 41 patients with different chronic B cell lymphoprolif...
